Audio Quality

SERIOUS AUDIO PERFORMANCE

The Creative SXFI AIR C's built-in Super X-Fi technology rests on its foundation of audio performance. The Creative SXFI AIR C boasts 50mm Neodymium drivers that are specially tuned to deliver audio that is powerful while maintaining accuracy, an essential attribute for music and movie buffs.

CLEAR COMMUNICATION AUDIO

The Creative SXFI AIR C features a detachable ClearComms microphone that allows you to communicate easily with teammates in-game or friends over Skype. The microphone is specially tuned to reproduce impressively natural vocals.

“SUPER X-FI” YOUR COMMS

Comms will never be the same again! With Super X-Fi, experience the mind-bending holographic reality of your teammate being in the same room as you. And with the SXFI AIR C's ClearComms mic, your friends will hear you loud and clear.

Comfort

REPLACEABLE FABRIC EARCUPS

As fabric is more breathable and dissipates heat better, the fabric and memory foam of the earcups provide a more comfortable experience. The earcups are also replaceable, so users can opt to switch them out for leatherette earcups (sold separately) if desired.

PERFECTLY BALANCED CLAMPING FORCE

Optimized clamping force is essential when creating an incredible headset. The Creative SXFI AIR C has a clamping force that is perfectly balanced, making it loose enough to be comfortable but tight enough to stay on the listeners head.

 
 

FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE RGB RING

Hear your audio in a new light! With 16 million different colors to choose from, the Creative SXFI AIR C with its customizable light ring can match any outfit you choose.

If it wasn’t for the long wire trailing out the bottom, I’d probably have forgotten I was wearing then. This headset finally makes headphones immersive.

Customer Reviews

W. Miller

I ordered this to replace my Sound Blaster EVO Wireless headphones. I am blown away by the audio experience. The best way I can explain the audio is going from a smartphone speaker to being in a movie theater. Sometimes I swear the sound is coming from my house and not the headphones, making me take them off and put them back on to know for sure. I was pleasantly surprised how well I can hear other people speaking to me in person when I have these on. Voice calls on Skype/Teams/Duo has been flawless and I'm constantly being complimented for being so clear on my calls. I installed the software, logged into my Creative account and it pulled the profiles I created with my Outlier Gold. At first I had trouble setting the lighting (it kept reverting) but once I updated the firmware it works perfect. I have also tested this using Fedora 32. Audio works as good here as it does in Windows but if I want to change my profile I either reboot into Windows or use an OTG cable on my Android. The build quality is excellent. I do not hear any creaking noise when I move my head. I often forget I'm wearing these because they're so light/comfortable.

SXFI gen 2 is amazing. You need to get the head mapping mostly perfect to get a good experience.

I like the blutooth function of the AIR, but this one is dope.
